The boy, who was 14 years old, was admitted to hospital but died a short time later.
And in Co Meath, a man in his 20s died after the car in which he was travelling was in collision with a truck.
The accident happened at Kilmoone Cross outside Ashbourne shortly before 10pm last night.
Three other people in the car were injured, one of them seriously.
Gardaí say the section of the N2 at the staggered crossroads will remain closed in both directions until at least late morning, and possibly the afternoon.
Diversions are in place, but motorists are advised to give themselves a lot of extra time to make any journeys in the area.
